t was about time to head out to the capital.Apolion and everyone else were packing their things as they were gonna stay in another inn. But before that, Apolion, remembered that Krisbleai invited him if he have time.
Well, he does have time now so he "might as well go and visit her" to see what was it about before going.
A carriage with the unique horses of this world could be seen outside from the windows and Takeshi and company were having a conversation between them. Nothing out of the ordinary.
----
""Madam, the client named Apolion Aldaneos has requested to enter for a private conversation.""
A butler entered respectfully and waiting for the reply of his master.
""Let him in""
""As you wish"" The servant then made Apolion come out of the door and sit down with Krisbleia in the small table from the office near a small greenish sofa and bid farewell.
Krisblea looked occupied at first as she was in her desk with papers to look and write with unknown business to Apolion. She put each of them away in a small s.p.a.ce near her table so she could view Apolion but she also signalled to come to the desk instead of the sofa he was in and signalling to sit down.
""I just wanted to give you something before you go"" She said firmly.
Apolion looked in antic.i.p.ation.
""Here take this"" Krisbleia gave Apolion a pendant of golden highlights and shape of a drop of water but of the size of a thumbnail. A brilliant gem of blue colours displaying from within.
""I can"t explain much since you don"t know full Floreian. But whenever someone asks you what it is, say its a gift from someone got it?
This is a pendant that might help you at some point in your journey and you will be able to call me if I am close within a 2000 Tonelics. Oh to give you an idea...
With a range as big as this country.
I am not an ordinary person. I am from the Polenic organization. You will understand later. But this was given to me by my Granpha and told me to hand it out to someone named Apolion Aldaneos..
And to identify you he told me you emit a strange aura different from what normal citizens or all race"s auras and there is no one with that name in this world.
He seemed correct, I never heard of such a name before. Especially your friends also have strange names never heard of before. Sorry if I am rude. But take care on your journey.
Do you understood everything?""
Apolion silently nodded.
""Well, then..""
Krisbleia came much closer to Apolion. Apolion in the other hand seemed perturbated and nervous that a beautiful woman is getting closer to him out of nowhere.
""Turn around"" her voice carried command as if she had the authority of the whole country.
Apolion did as told only to be..
Muah!
""Wh!""
Apolion went a bit away and thought that was strange while touching his cheeks.If he wasn"t wrong that was just now...it was..
""A kiss""
That"s a reward for entertaining me and helping with the ch.o.r.es in some cases.
Now that Apolion remembers.While he stayed here. When he had a bit of free time he decided to help the Krisbleia as since he knew he might be staying here for free why not help people a bit?
""Good bye and take care hope I see you and your friends again"" She said one last time seductively while bidding farewell to the departing Apolion who was processing what just happened.
-----
""Apolion we have been waiting for you.Wait a minute!
What is that sign..on your CHEEKS!""
George burst out of the carriage waiting for them as he witnesses Apolion coming out to go the capital within the same carriage.
""What do you mean?"" Apolion asked confused.
""Stop playing dumb.it was a girl wasn"t it?!"" George pressed the matter as if its a serious matter like the end of the world.
George got frustrated as he met mostly men and girls of his dislike while coming where they were..but that"s for another time.
""Wait...give me a mirror!""
""Look a yourself on the water reflection from that bowl over there."" George pointed out to a bowl close to them left probably by someone who was coming to pick it up or G.o.d knows what was it for.but convenient for the time being.
Apolion looked with curiosity until he found an implanted kiss in red. Now that he remembers .."" Her lips were more red than usual...""
"Why can"t I get it off?" Apolion tried to get rid of it to no avail.He guessed he had to ask Lorenya to remove it before it gets worse as she may know something about makeup.
""Forget it, probably an accident with someone..."" Apolion tried to hide the incident but George was suspicious as if it was his mother pressing on the issue.
""Yeah right....I will get back at you on the carriage now get on"" George said one last time before telling Apolion to get to the carriage.
Throughout the journery long story short.They annoyed Apolion about the kiss and making all sorts of outrageous remarks.
Lorenya was quite surprised while saying that the lipstick is called a lover"s lipstick or a long-lasting rare type of lipstick that only high-cla.s.s ladies could afford and it will naturally wear of a become less resistant after 3 hours usually and Achils was thinking Apolion has the potential to be a ladies man.
Apolion was however, thinking about Krisbleia"s words..
"Did she say her grandpa knows me or did I misinterpret?"
""Master, you are right.It was extremely suspicious I suggest not to wear the pendant in case for now.But the woman sure was mysterious.I think you should tell someone like Takeshi or the Emperor if he knows something or Achils, but she indicated to keep it a secret to you master.In the end is your choice."" Alize said in Apolion"s head.
"Fair enough I was thinking the same.But I think I will keep it a secret only for now.maybe I will come across the organization or whatever it is somewhere on my journey. Deactivate thought reading"
"Affirmative"
"There shouldn"t be no one in this planet that know of our coming or even one of us theoretically.. but I will come back once again to gain more information after I learn more"
----
""This is the capital? Awesome!""
""Impressive""
""Not bad""
The three main individuals looked with awe.
There was clear sky and giant walls in the size of roman colosseums surrounding the entrance.A high castle as the mountain from the right side from afar and a great palace in the same size but a bit bigger. Standing tall in their yellow marvellous colours in the shining towards the sun"s everlasting warm light.
They had to stay in the carriage while they pa.s.sed through the borders and after Achils had identified himself as a n.o.ble that know the emperor.
There was various discussions.The matter of the "beast" was quiet popular within the streets.
-------
""Sit down steemed benefactors and make yourself comfortable. Whatever you need, tell me."" The Sulkhan sat on an ordinary throne behind a table of big magnitudes yet simple. They were in a room filled with candles and lights from strange flying b.a.l.l.s that mimicked earth"s lights.
The generals and ministers were also present but with their faces naked in the light.
""I came here to reward your actions towards our empire we are deeply gratified. But I also wanted to say that 2 days ego we found a strange girl about your age looking for someone named Takeshi and Apolion. And if you knew each other.She might explain the details later privately its your own matter after all
Let me call her""
The Sulkhan immediately signalled one of the minister to bring her in. He got up and left.
After that..they were talking about where they came from and the sorts and so they had to make up strange stories to convince them that they were individuals from small states in a country that had been destroyed and they are just refugees but because of their high power, they were the last hope. There were 13 children like them who had a mission to either re-establish themselves in a new country or found their new country to its former glory.They were separated after a few incidences and they were finally meeting up after few years because they had an invisible seal to identify them or so the story goes.
Just from few n.o.ble families who could perhaps live and be a survivor
They even had to signal in the map and highlight it was conquered by the army and nation led by Satkhalsha and say they were just a new country that got conquered to avoid nuisance by making another country"s name an enemy.
""Sorry for the wait""
""h.e.l.lo everyone. May I know where Takeshi and Apolion might be?"" A feminine voice ,that was very calml, responded.
""They are there"" The minister pointed out while fixing his gla.s.ses with a finger.
""Thank you""
Apolion and Takeshi waited patiently.Takeshi knew she was the person he contacted through his A.I that one time he was in the forest but was far away.His skill and energy was advanced so communication through telepathy was possible. He told her that they will meet in this country or find Apolion as they were informed he was near this country.
They didn"t meet directly so they didn"t know each other because they were prosecuted with a herd of beasts within the forest.But that"s for another story yet again.
""Greetings"" She spoke Floreianand very timidly spoke to the three of them
Apolion and Takeshi could feel she was part of their group. While, George gritted his teeth comically by how Takeshi and Apolion always get the girls.
She was wearing a dress that had a white skirt with blue highlights below reaching her knees and white tights were present.A pale complexion and blue eyes with flowing blond hair.A loose and modest clothing of a long sleeve in one hand while the other was naked and free with a bracelet.
A shield was present in her back and belt with lot of pockets and few tools was attached above her skirt and a bag hanging from the shoulder to below.A typical high schooler bag in the movies but for survival this time or so Apolion and the other three thought.
George kept staring at her big and round chest similar to a grown woman of cup D as if he was looking at art while taking photos to keep for show but this time in his brain.
Before George could react he was. .h.i.t by Takeshi"s sword"s sheath once again for his so-called stupidity in front of people.
""She sat within a chair present and reserved for the three of them.
""So that is what the seat was for huh?"" George murmured.
She sat down nervously.She seemed to be those that are very shy. They wonder how come she is chosen in a world full of cruelty or soon to be cruel like this..she was an angel..her beauty is off the charts the three acknowledged.
""Not an angel because I clearly saw them and looked way different more like a heavenly creature? Or maybe something else? But nothing that of an angel don"t y"all think?"" George thought and told Apolion.
She got red in the face after George"s comment. He was s.h.i.t again.Takeshi told her that they will talk later.She does not seem to know English and some other language which Takeshi could not decipher in the fit of the moment back then even though the device translated for him as the temporary storage got deleted accidentally for saved words.
She was talking Floreian this time which made the communication easier. Since they came in this world..communication was a fat problem.But solved now.
""Let"s talk a bit later.."" The new member responded fl.u.s.tered.
"She is so cute" George thought in his mind.
""Ejem, ejem. Let"s get to the main business shall we?"" the Sulkhan made his intentions clear.
The room fell silent.

Mini-world

Lord Maximus: Is there anyone alive?
*Looks at a destroyed city*
Apolion: Nope I don"t think so master.Are you sure the soul breaker is here?
Lord Maximus: Yes it is according to the map but if we don"t find it there must be a secret hideout where we can find it.
Apolion: Got it.
*We were in the middle of an abandoned building that a sin a ghost city.We heard a sound that"s why I was investigating if anyone was there*
Lord Maximus: It"s probably something fall don"t mind it.I don"t sense anything in the area.There must be no one here.
